This film uses a small amount of caustic paste. If any paste appears, avoid contact with skin, eyes and mouth
and keep away from children and animals. If you get some paste on your skin, wipe it off immediately, then
wash with water to avoid an alkali burn. If eye contact occurs, quickly wash the area with plenty of water and
see a doctor. Do not cut or take apart pictures or battery. Do not burn battery or allow metal to touch terminals.

Technical Data
500 Integral Color Print Film
The information in this data sheet
represents the typical performance
of Polaroid’s 500 integral color print
film. However, there may be some
variation between film lots.

D-Max: The density value for the
film’s darkest black.
D-Min: The lowest density value
that a film exhibits. In prints, the
whiteness of the brightest highlight,
relative to the unprocessed print.
Slope: The positive ratio of the log
E increments of the straight line
region of the curve, as determined
by the 1/4-3/4 increment method.
The slope of an H&D curve
indicates the overall contrast of a
film: low contrast slopes less than
1.10; medium contrast slopes from
1.10 to 1.70; high contrast slopes
greater than 1.70.

Reciprocity law failure
A wide range of shutter speeds can be used without loss of film speed
or requirements for color filtration. For longer exposure times, some
exposure compensation and filtration is suggested.

Reciprocity
The ability of the film to respond in a
constant manner to a constant exposure
(light intensity x time).
Reciprocity failure occurs during very long
or very short exposures, requiring the
photographer to increase exposure.
